Hair makeovers have been the staple of the American girl sleepover for decades. The notion of getting to re-do your friend's do sends many little and big girls into a frenzy of delight. Create a fun hair makeover game for your daughter's next sleepover that will generate lots of giggles and laughs. Hair makeovers aren't just for kids---spice up your next ladies night out event with a hilarious dress up games.

Blind Hairdo: If you've ever done your hair in the dark, you'd understand how difficult it is to get your style right. Create a hilarious game where the girls are blindfolded and have to style their friend's hair.

Play the game where you create different hair scenarios on index cards such as "create a hairstyle for prom" or "design the perfect do for prison." Toss the cards in a hat and allow the girls to randomly choose one.

Allow the stylist to select a partner or "victim." She cannot tell her partner which hair style she is about to perform. Grab hair accessories and a blindfold and let the blindfolded stylist exercise her creative freedom on her partner's hair.

Include fun items such as wash-out colored hairspray, sparkles, hair pieces and big bows. Don't let the stylist's partner watch in the mirror, she can only look at the other guest's reactions as she is transformed. While the stylist is performing the hairdo, ask the guests to shout out the occasion for the hairdo. Whoever figures it out first wins a small prize.

You'll have a bunch of funny-looking guests by the time the party ends. Award a prize to the craziest hairdo.

Hairdo Relay: Divide the girls into teams of two for a hairdo relay race. Sit the teams on one end of the room and set up each team's supplies on the other end. Each team should have the same amount of hair accessories, brushes, combs, wash-out colored hair spray, gel, hats and hair pieces.

Create hairstyle descriptions on several index cards. Include step-by-step instructions for each style. Mix the cards up in a hat and ask each team to select one card.

One team member is the stylist and the other team member is the customer. The customer must stay on the other side of the room throughout the game. The stylist can only bring back one item at a time to style the customer's hair.

Announce "go" and have the stylist race to one side of the room and select a styling tool. The stylist must race back to the customer, then race back over to the other side and grab the next tool.

Once the stylist has all the tools, she can perform the hair style according to the description on the card. The first team with the finished hairdo wins.
